What is an electromagnetic weapon?

Electromagnetic weapon is a type of weapon similar to a standard firearm or other weapon, except that it uses electricity and magnetism to create a force that drives a gunner from a weapon. Standard firearms use ammunition that includes gunpowder, which is used to create a small explosion that creates a power to fire a bullet from the case. The electromagnetic gun uses an electric current to generate a magnetic field that creates a power necessary to drive a bullet or other projectile from a weapon at incredibly high speeds. Although efforts have been made to change these weapons, models have been more like canons or mounted artillery weapons since 2011. The electromagnetic gun has a few electrically conductive rails, and therefore the alternative name is close to each other, but does not touch. The power source is then connected to the railway, usually a capacitor or other electric power.

Depending on the design of an electromagnetic gun, an anchor may also be present between the two rails against which the projectile can be placed. This fitting itself may be conductive or projectiles used with weapons can be conductive; In both cases, this allows the perimeter to be completed through both rails. Once it's done, both rails become electrically charged, which in turn produces a magnetic field. This field produces a huge amount of energy in an electromagnetic gun, which then pushes the shooter down mainly the weapons and out towards the goal.

However, the high amount of energy produced by an electromagnetic gun can be so intense that the rails on many early models would melt and be replaced between each shot. These weapons also require very large energy sources to function, which is the use of pistols or even rifles designed as rail weapons costly. However, larger railway weapons have been designed and developed for JA useKO extensive artillery for battleships and other vehicles.

If the current development continues, the electromagnetic weapon can be designed around 2016, which will be able to fire the projectile more than 100 km (160 km) at more than seven times higher sound speed. These projectiles would be so strong that they would not even use explosive payloads. Kinetic energy from their speed would be enough to destroy bunkers, tanks and other targets on the impact.
